HOW IT WORKS

Dogs Love Bark Potty

Like grass, the natural earthy smells of bark and other natural ingredients stimulate a dog’s innate instinct to mark their territory and “go”. Plus, our bark is chock full of natural, safe bacteria that breaks down odors.

Always a Fresh Box

Our low cost subscription allows you to always have a new one on hand to replace the old unit when it gets too soiled. All you have to do is pick up the poop just like on walk. Because it’s replaced regularly, you never have to clean it and it won’t stink like artificial grass. Best yet, our bark and other natural ingredients are all eco-friendly.

Why It’s Better

Unlike grass, Bark Potty is shelf-stable and won’t die or rot when stored. You can use it wherever and whenever you want. Our patent-pending design holds the litter in place to prevent any kick-ups. In addition, the box is lined to prevent leaks.

FAQs

About the product

How will Bark Potty help me?

Bark Potty is all about making the lives of pet parents more convenient when it comes to potty time! In fact, the founders conceived the idea for Bark Potty when their own busy schedules made it difficult to come home at regular times to walk their dogs. The guilt of thinking about their poor, furry babies waiting to go potty led to them to create a useful, convenient, safe, and eco-friendly solution for parents everywhere!

You’ll find that Bark Potty is a perfect solution for:

• house-training a puppy
• apartment residents that don’t have the luxury of a backyard
• busy professionals that can’t always make it home at the same time
• senior dogs with incontinence and/or arthritis
• avoiding the late night walk in the cold/rain/snow
• pet parents tired of the smell and maintenance from artificial grass
• folks who have tried real grass solutions but don’t like the smell, maintenace, or the higher cost of having it delivered
• homeowners that want to have a dog run on the side of the house in order to protect their grassy backyard

Will my pup like and use Bark Potty?

Bark Potty is made from the same materials commonly found at dog parks around the world. Each box is filled with bark chips and other natural ingredients that are held in place with a patent-pending micro-thin mesh netting. The natural smell of wood and organic ingredients compel dogs to “go” on Bark Potty, just like at the dog park! Often, they will use it with little or no training. Check out this video of dogs who took to the Bark Potty immediately!

For fussy dogs, all it takes is a little positive reinforcement to get them used to it. Give them a treat when you see them use it the first few times. They’ll be hooked and you’ll love the ease and simplicity of the system. With all new routines, it does take some time, patience, and consistency with training your dog, which is why we offer free consultations. Just give us a ring to speak with one of our friendly and knowledgeable trainers, or watch our training video HERE for quick & easy tips!

Why is it better than plastic turf or any other potty solution? Why is it better for my dog, the environment and me?

Plastic artificial turf potty solutions for dogs are far from ideal as anyone who’s tried them can tell you. They require immaculate and repeated cleaning or they begin to reek of urine. Cleaning them requires large open spaces to hose them down with detergent. In addition, they don’t “absorb” or in anyway neutralize the smells like organic ingredients tend to do. You need to pick up solids just like any other solution – so again they have no benefit and if you’ve looked… they’re expensive!

Artificial grass emits VOCs (Volatile Organic Compounds), basically chemical fumes, which are not only bad for the environment but for humans and dogs as well. Secondly, the carbon footprint for manufacturing artificial grass is extremely high – it is a very energy intensive process during which greenhouse gases are emitted.

Real grass is an option that we are also very familiar with. Grass has many of the benefits of Bark Potty but it’s either VERY inconvenient, dirty, heavy and hard to source and manage or if shipped to you much more more expensive due to the weight and shipping costs. Plus, it’s perishable and susceptible to weather variations such as heat and frost and requires more maintenance.

We feel Bark Potty has all of the upsides and none of the downsides. It’s natural ingredients compel the dog to “go” like real grass but it never dies, wilts or rots. It’s clean, light and easy to manage and has none of the expensive and harmful effects of plastic.

How does it work?

Dogs simply use the Bark Potty any time they like. You can place it indoors or out. As your dog urinates, the liquids drain into and are absorbed by the bark chips and other organic materials, just like with grass or at the dog park. The inside of each tray is lined with a special wax to contain the liquid. When you dog goes “number 2” you simply remove it as you would if you were walking your dog. Check our our training video HERE to see the Bark Potty in action 🙂

Why is it a subscription and how long does it last?

We feel the subscription is part of the magic of Bark Potty, and why it works so well. Each tray is disposable and recyclable (check with your local municipality), so when it gets too soiled to use, another clean one is ready to replace it. You never have to clean a smelly plastic piece of grass again. Each one typically lasts up to 2-4 weeks with normal usage but may vary based on the frequency of usage and size of dog.

Why does it come in different prices?

Great question! We at Bark Potty believe in making the product as green as possible and as inexpensive as we can make it (we know how costly it can be to be a pet parent!). One big way to keep it greener and at the same time save you money is to combine multiple boxes into one shipment. The more trays you choose to receive in a single shipment (as opposed to getting it shipped each month) the more you save!

Do I need to clean my Bark Potty ?

Nope – that’s the genius behind the subscription. Each tray is disposable and recyclable, so when it gets too soiled to use, another clean one is ready to replace it. All you have to do is pick up solids as you would on a walk or at the dog park. Each one typically lasts up to a month depending on the amount of usage.

You never have to scrub a smelly plastic piece of astro turf again!

Does it smell?

We find that the natural bacteria in the bark and other natural, organic ingredients do a good job at breaking down the urine odors. Plastic and other non-organic solutions literally trap odors, but Bark Potty’s ingredients tend to break them down. And of course because it’s a subscription service – a new fresh one is always available.

Will it leak on my carpet?

We line the inside of the box with a special wax that prevents liquids from penetrating. Our testing has found it to be very secure under normal circumstances. That being said, we ask all our customers to inspect their boxes upon delivery to make sure the trays are not damaged in such a way to cause leaks. If you find any damage, contact us within 5 days of delivery – we’re here to help.

Will my dog kick up the bark and get it all over the place?

Your dog may try, but we have a special netting designed to prevent those kicks from spreading bark all over the place.

What are the dimensions and will it work with my larger dog?

Bark Potty trays are about 24″x 24″x1.5″ (actually 23.87″x 23.87″x1.5″ to be precise!) so about 4 square feet. We recommend using two trays together for bigger dogs and have a special Large Breed Packs for such circumstances. The trays are designed to connect together using our “connecting strip” which is included.

I have multiple dogs – will it still work?

A tray is designed to support a single small to medium sized dog for up to a month. If you have a large dog or multiple smaller dogs you might want consider our Large Breed Packs.

Do you offer any special training services with Bark Potty?

Yes! Check out our training video HERE for quick & easy tips! We also offer free training support to those with stubborn fur babies. We understand that sometimes a dog may be used to a certain routine and training them to go in a new spot may be difficult. This is especially challenging if a dog has been told their entire life NOT to go potty inside the house! So a little patience, understanding and help from us is all you need to teach your dog that it’s perfectly okay to go potty inside the house… but only on the Bark Potty. 🙂 Give us a call or email contact@barkpotty.com to set up an appointment.

What size is the Bark Potty?

23.5 x 23.5 x 2.75

I need my next shipment sooner. What should I do?

If you find that you need your next Bark Potty shipment sooner, just send us an email and we’ll take care of it for you!

My dog had a runny poo, how do I clean that up?

Wait a few hours for the poo to set. Once it’s hardened you should be able to pick it up in one piece. If it’s still soft, give it some more time to let it solidify.

Should this be kept indoors or outdoors?

Either. It’s really up to your dog (and you). If it’s kept outdoors and it rains or snows, remember to move it to a covered area so it doesn’t get wet.

Is the Bark Potty heavy?

Each unit weighs approximately 2-3 lbs.

I’d like to just purchase one. Can I do that?

Currently we only offer subscriptions. However, you can find Bark Potty at a local retailer near you. If they don’t have it in stock, be sure to ask them to start carrying it!

Shipping

When will I get my first Bark Potty?

Once you sign up, your first Bark Potty will ship out within the next 1-2 business days. You’ll receive a confirmation email with tracking information once it ships.

Uh-oh. My Bark Potty shows that it was delivered but I can’t find it. What do I do?

Darn! We’re so sorry to hear about that. If you’ve tracked the order and still find that it’s missing in action, send an email to contact@barkpotty.com within 48 hours of showing that it’s been delivered and we’ll do our best to get everything sorted out.

What are my shipping options?

We ship via FedEx Home Delivery. It ships ground so generally it takes anywhere from 1-5 days. We do not require a signature release, however, it’s ultimately up to the driver and whether he feels its safe to leave your package at the front door. If your driver leaves a notice requiring a signature we recommend leaving a note for your driver to leave the package, even when you’re not home OR sign up for FedEx Delivery Manager to customize your delivery and give instructions directly to the driver in your area.

I changed addresses and forgot to let you know or I entered in the wrong address when I signed up. What should I do?

We get it. Mistakes happen. Once in transit, we can redirect your shipment for a small fee.
